When his attempt to flee his abusive father ends in a shocking murder, Ted is thrust into a world of deceit and lies within his own family.

As his sister faces a grim fate, Ted must navigate treacherous waters to uncover the truth. But with trust crumbling and suspects emerging, he soon realises that no one is above suspicion. From supposed allies to his own kin, Ted must unravel the tangled web of deceit and bring the killer to justice before it's too late. 

But as he delves deeper into his family's dark past, Ted realises that the consequences of his actions may be more devastating than he ever imagined. Can he unravel the truth before it destroys his family?

Fans of new adult dystopian adventures will be enthralled by this first chapter, racing towards an inevitable confrontation with the truth.
